• All Purpose Flour 2 cups
• Butter 1/2 cup
• Olive oil or vegetable oil - 1/4 cup
• Sugar 1/3 cup
• Baking Soda 1 tsp
• Orange Juice1 tbsp
• For the Dip:
• Sugar 3/4 cup
• Honey 1/3 cup
• Chopped nuts (I used chopped Pista and raisins)

In a bowl, beat the oil and butter until blended well using a hand mixer.

Add in sugar, orange juice and baking soda and mix well.

Add flour little by little, using a spatula mix the dough well and make a soft dough.

Make small lemon size balls and flatten each balls 1/2 inch slices. (flatten it with your hands) .

Using a cookie cutter or with moulds cut into any shapes as you like.

Place the slices on a baking sheet or a tray lined with aluminium foil and bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 mins or until nice brown. (check it in the middle, it tend to be brown very quick) Remove it from oven and cool it.

In a pan combine sugar, honey and 1/2 cup of water and boil it for 5 mins.

Remove the syrup from fire and dip each cookie in the warm syrup and sprinkle immediately with chopped nuts.

Dry it and enjoy
